[Ancient woman warrior transmigrates into the future: adorable on the outside, ferocious within, female lead VS interstellar soldier who's both sweet and savage: a bit of a rascal but very powerful, male lead]

Rong Beichen, the greatest woman warrior of Northern Tang, was caught in a poisonous insect formation laid by the enemy just as victory was in her grasp. When she opened her eyes again, she had become a withdrawn girl in a slum a thousand years in the future. Unable to awaken her psychic powers, she could only scrape by growing and selling low-grade mutant succulents.

Just when she was at her wits' end, she received a virtual-reality game headset.

The moment she put it on, she and her succulent garden were transported into a tower-defense game. But she wasn't a player. She was the tower's owner.

All around the tower were the things she hated most: bugs! And giant mutant ones, at that!

How could she let that stand?!

Old and new grudges came rushing back, and Rong Beichen poured all the tower's attack attributes into her succulent garden!

Scale insects, aphids, and spider mites? You ruined my succulents yesterday, so today Bear's Paw will become a giant bear paw and crush you all to dust!

Venomous wasps, ants, and scorpions? You trapped my soldiers in your formation, so today Peach Beauty will become a violent cannon and blow you to smithereens!

The bugs kept multiplying, but that was no problem! She commanded her succulents to form battle arrays: the Crescent Moon Formation, the Six-Flower Formation, and the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Formation. She combined orthodox and unorthodox tactics, with a stratagem from Zhang Liang and a ladder to scale the wall!

With her flexible formations and her succulents' incredible fighting power, Rong Beichen swept through the battlefield. The tower's protected area grew larger and larger, until it became famous in the game world as the North Star Base.

A saying began to spread among the players: As long as you keep fighting and find the North Star, you'll find a safe zone.

Then one time, she fell ill and didn't log into the game for three days. Suddenly, someone knocked on her door.

When she opened it, a man with a roguish smile put on a show of politeness. "Just keep playing the game, and I'll give you money, health, and my life!"

In the interstellar age, humanity has sunk to the bottom of the social order and is ruled, along with countless alien races, by an artificial intelligence called the Supreme Deity. Competition for resources and fighting between species have taken on a more hypocritical form: a tower-defense game called Divine Gu.

Humanity got off to a bad start, accidentally lost part of the tower's source code, and forfeited a third of its safe zone! After one defeat after another, people thought they were doomed, but then the tide unexpectedly turned.

On this day, after more than a thousand years of wandering through the universe, humanity finally remembered:

That was the North Star, the star that had once guided humanity on its home planet, Earth!

*

The first time they met in the game, Xi Su was trapped in a dead end.

Through the swarming tide of insects, that person strode toward him without a trace of fear, like a razor-sharp force sweeping everything away. The insect beasts fell in the light, and a breach opened in the chaos.

Xi Su couldn't help whistling. "Now that's what a real man should see in his final moments!"

Then he nearly got killed by Rong Beichen and used as a sacrifice to raise the battle standard, all because he'd been too smooth-tongued.

By their Nth meeting, Xi Su was looking at a crowd of alien races fighting tooth and nail to be taken in. He smiled coyly. "Big Sis~ Please dote on me and spoil me."

Rong Beichen rubbed her forehead. "Drop that ridiculous way of addressing me, or I'll wipe out all your military merit."

Xi Su held up his token and made a heart with his fingers as he ran off. "Sure thing, Big Sis! I won't do it again, Big Sis!"

When they finally met in the real world, Xi Su stared at the slender, quiet girl before him, who barely came up to his shoulder and looked like she might still be underage. His face twisted, and he was speechless for a long time.

That night, the entry in A Journal of Rong Beichen's Encounters in Another World read:

"My new underling is capable of capturing enemy generals and seizing their banners, but meeting him in person was a huge disappointment. He looks like a silly goose."

"Still, it doesn't matter. This commander has plenty of strength and plenty of ways to handle him."

"The Interstellar Tattoo Artist Is Wanted Every Day"

After staying up all night finishing her thesis, Shao Tang closed her eyes and opened them again to find she'd transmigrated into an apprentice tattoo artist at a failing shop on a backwater planet in the interstellar age. She was being forced to serve customers before she was ready.

Good news: Tattoo restoration is the most popular profession in the interstellar age, equivalent to being a programmer or actuary in the modern world. The future is limitless!

Bad news: Shao Tang knows nothing about drawing or tattoos, and even has some hopelessly outdated prejudices!

Shao Tang gritted her teeth and stomped her foot. "Whatever! I've finally caught a wave in a booming industry, so I'll seize my chance no matter what!" With anesthetic in one hand and a steel needle in the other, she worked with her head down for three hours and added a slimy slug to a customer's mighty shoulder dragon tattoo.

Bad news: The customer was the city lord's son. Once the anesthetic wore off, his expression darkened, and he immediately issued a citywide wanted notice!

Good news: ...There was no good news. Shao Tang fled the city in the middle of the night!

With almost nothing in her bank account, Shao Tang had no choice but to use her tattoo apprentice certificate to set up a roadside stall on the capital planet.

And so...

She steeled herself and restored the flying tiger tattoo on the back of the neighborhood boss into a flying cat, earning herself a neighborhood-wide wanted notice!

She played to her strengths and turned the round scar on a police colonel's arm into the character for "patience," earning herself a capital-wide wanted notice!

Out of kindness, she added a few clumsy pairs of wings to the wyvern tattoo on the chest of an injured man she'd found...

But the injured man turned out to be an interstellar major general! The first thing he did when he woke up was issue ten wanted notices in a row, ordering the entire interstellar world to capture the tattoo artist Shao Tang!

What Shao Tang didn't know was that the innate tattoos on interstellar people's bodies were tied to how they used their powers and displayed their combat abilities. Tattoo artistry was one of the professions that could least afford carelessness in the interstellar age. But after a while, people began to notice:

After the city lord's son got a slug tattoo, his arrogant and overbearing nature gradually mellowed, and he stopped causing trouble.

After the neighborhood boss got a cat tattoo, he changed from his usual vicious, violent self and even started taking care of his health by playing with walnut beads.

After the police colonel got the character for "patience," he stopped acting recklessly without thinking and survived several life-threatening crises.

The interstellar major general slaughtered his way across the battlefield, feeling his combat power rise several times over, and fell into thought.

His aide offered a timely suggestion. "Perhaps we should withdraw the wanted notices?"

The major general recalled the tattoo artist's sly smile and smiled faintly. "Add ten more wanted notices. We'll talk after she's been caught."

"The Genius Race Car Driver Takes a Driving Test in Three Realms"

One day, a popular human-world website was flooded with the same headline: [Shocking! Genius race car driver Luan Di dies unexpectedly. The fate of her fortune worth over a hundred million remains a mystery!]

At the same time, the subject of the news was standing beside her wrecked car, staring wide-eyed at a talking bluebird.

Luan Di tried to make sense of things. "You're saying I still have to work after I die?"

The bluebird solemnly corrected her. "To be precise, in recognition of your excellent performance in life, you have been exceptionally hired as a contracted driver by the Transportation Department of the Three Realms Office. You will provide services to special passengers traveling between the three realms."

Luan Di's expression darkened. "You're saying I went from being a world-class race car driver to some damned bus driver?"

The bluebird explained politely. "To be precise, you won't just see ghosts. You may also encounter monsters."

Luan Di laughed in exasperation. Unable to hold back any longer, she pointed at the battered unicycle. "This piece of junk is what I'm supposed to drive?!"

The bluebird helplessly spread its wings. "That's because you don't have a three-realms driver's license! You have to start with the lowest grade of vehicle!"

*

One day, Zhu Tinglan, CEO of the Zhulong Group, worked late into the night and realized he'd forgotten his driver's license. After a moment of indecision between driving without one and breaking the rules by teleporting, he chose to call a cab.

Five minutes later, a... contraption... a... person riding a unicycle broke through the void and came to a whirring stop in front of him.

The bright, flamboyant driver looked a lot like the late genius race car driver he idolized, though her temper was completely different. With an impatient look, she tossed him a helmet.

"You can transform, right? Make yourself smaller and sit in the basket. Fasten your seat belt."

"There might be other passengers sharing the ride. No fighting, and no eating them. If you absolutely have to eat someone, don't get blood on my vehicle."

"When the ride's over, please leave me a five-star review. Otherwise, you'll be added to my personal driver blacklist, and you'll be responsible for the consequences!"

Zhu Tinglan laughed, then couldn't help asking politely, "What exactly happens if I don't give you a good review?"

Luan Di gave a cold laugh. "Next time you ride with me, you'll only be allowed to sit in the cup holder!"

Zhu Tinglan: "..."

*

One day, the Three Realms Monster News devoted an entire page to a report on an event titled "Serving the Grassroots, Connecting Immortals and Mortals: A Public Discussion on the Issues We Care About Most."

The top three public discussion topics were:

#Caught a unicycle during morning rush hour and saved my perfect attendance bonus

#You can even chat with a domineering CEO in the basket

#The gloomy male ghost at Southview Bridge picked the wrong fight and got chased for a mile

Although all of the above topics were related to Luan Di, there was only one topic that truly gave her a headache:

#Ms. Luan has once again had her driver's license revoked for beating up passengers. She takes the test, beats someone up, then takes the test again

[Hot-tempered race car driver female lead, domineering CEO and Zhulong dragon male lead]

● Reader's guide to this novel (a set of strange rules) ●

1. There are no perfect protagonists or supporting characters here. If you find a perfect character, you must have missed something in the story.

2. The setting and worldbuilding are entirely fictional. Please don't draw comparisons to the real world. If readers don't follow the rules for pointing out potential issues, the author will be in tears.

3. The plot is serious, tense, and exciting most of the time. If you come across something ridiculous, melodramatic, or humorous, the author may have accidentally revealed her true nature. Readers can preserve their reading experience by making a loud fuss in the comments, or by joining in.

4. If the story includes outdated, unfunny jokes, don't convict the author. She enjoys them and has long since piled one offense on top of another.

5. Don't set your expectations for the romance too high. Everyone knows a clumsy cook can't make a decent meal in a battered pot. If the author boasts about how hard she's working on the couples, wake her up and read her the previous sentence out loud.

6. Please don't mention other works or authors in the comments. The author is too obscure to bear the accusation of chasing fame. Likewise, don't bring this novel into the comment sections of other works. We wouldn't dare, don't want to, and shouldn't.

7. Thursday is the author's most fragile day. Any discussion of the novel should be postponed until the next update.

8. If the novel gets a good ranking, Rule 7 is automatically void.

9. Feel free to discuss the plot, but no insults or spoilers. We're all good friends! This obscure author only needs three things to write: harmony, harmony, and meow, harmony!

10. This novel was first published on Jinjiang Literature City and may be revised from time to time. The author is only responsible for the official version.

Theme: Everyone can be their own savior
